Traffic Switch on Eldorado Parkway Between DNT & Preston

TRAFFIC SWITCH ON ELDORADO PARKWAY BETWEEN DALLAS PARKWAY AND PRESTON ROAD EFFECTIVE THURSDAY, AUGUST 19; THREE NEW TRAFFIC SIGNALS BECOME OPERATIONAL

(August 17, 2010) The new eastbound lanes on Eldorado Parkway between Dallas Parkway and Preston Road will be open to traffic on Thursday,
August 19 (weather permitting). Eastbound and westbound traffic will
begin flowing on opposite sides of the median, which will create normal traffic operations on the roadway between Dallas Parkway and Preston Road.
Just west of Preston Road, traffic will transition back to the existing
pavement with two-way traffic. On the same day that traffic is switched,
three new traffic signals will be put into operation on Eldorado Parkway at Frisco Street, North County Road and Rogers Road.

At intersections and driveways, motorists should pay special attention when turning onto eastbound Eldorado Parkway to be sure that they are on the correct side of the median. Motorists approaching Eldorado Parkway from the south should pay special attention to the new locations of stop lines and stop signs on the southern edge of the widened roadway.
Motorists approaching any of the new traffic signals should be prepared to stop at the designated stop line locations.

Motorists are urged to use caution in the area as people become accustomed to the new traffic patterns and traffic signals.
